    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Like I say no inside knowledge but don’t see how the company can pay production staff when they’re not making or selling cars. The iww whilst great for those like me who are on it has always been an extravagance in my opinion, and the current circumstances would justify removing it especially...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Union is meeting JLR top bods tomorrow. No inside knowledge but imagine most of production will be furloughed if possible. Whitley and Gaydon staff non engineering are working from home however most are on an increased working week which can be pulled at any time (3 extra hours a week for 8.1%...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    My guess is the restrictions will be relaxed by the end of May. Kids back at school for the final half term. My worry is we’ll need to do this all again for the usual flu season so we could all be locked up over Xmas and into February. The economic side effects and those on family life will be...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    The economic effects of this are going to be monumental. Despite having a Tory government they’re going to have to do the unthinkable and nationalise key industry or at least take a stake in them, not just to survive the next few months but the impending recession/depression. The uk government...

    Ifollow again

    I couldn’t get onto Ifollow using express vpn at all during yesterday’s game. App just froze on the club crest. Then opened it up without a vpn and could watch the game no bother. 3 o’clock Saturday kick off in the uk. Don’t know if someone had bodged the settings yesterday

    St Andrews

    Really enjoyed it yesterday, was like being back at highfield road. On the Bedworth supporters coach which only took 30 mins to get to the ground. Few beers in the roost which had a good vibe. Atmosphere in the ground was no worse than the Ricoh. Food and drink was busy but again no worse than...

    Match Packages

    Anyone heard when these go on sale? Thought it was this week but can’t see them on the ticket site.

    Home shirt out of stock already

    Given its pre-order I’m not sure why you can’t pay for whatever size you want. I’m waiting on the infant kits for the little one and all the normal sizes for adults are already gone. Would have liked to have them for the first game of the season but still happy to put my money down and be next...

    Kit launch at Coombe Abbey

    At the risk of being a moaner - no infant kits available yet, even to pre order. Look bloody great though.

    £5 Official Coach Travel.

    Anyone looked into trains yet. Fancy getting the train and a few beers by the ground but not seen any confirmation Bordesley green will be open? Official coach is an option but always find they cut it a bit fine to enjoy a drink around the ground. Hate the queue for overpriced slop in the ground.

    New season fixtures

    Anyone know what day we’ll be playing or whether we’ll know before fixtures are released. I know that blues and villa don’t play at the same time but Baggies and Villa do, so hoping it still Saturday kick offs and not Friday or Sunday. Was really pissed off Friday but have decided I’m going to...

    Could they be still talking

    Lol that’s a decent one

    Could they be still talking

    I just wonder if wasps insistence that we indemnify them Is because they are aware that the EC are far more likely to rule that the sale needs investigation and find it was legally as well as morally wrong. Likewise SISU must think moving to brum is worth their while. As bad as this is at the...

    St Andrews confirmed!

    Morning after the night before and still feel very conflicted on this. It does feel different to Northampton so probably will go to games but a season ticket is more than likely a no. Would like the club to release info on prices, travel plans e.t.c ASAP now so people can plan for next season...

    The Next Statement

    Genie is out the bottle. The commission will investigate regardless now, we can’t withdraw the complaint. Im struggling to see what wasps gain from us not being at the Ricoh. Lost rent, reduced sponsorship and sub let’s. They have lost control of events now and other than spite what do they...

    Next Seasons Confirmed Squad/Transfer Rumours

    To be fair watching that game Baka and Thomas need another year on nico playing fields. Pitch was terrible but Stockdale in goal and a proper target man and I think we’d be challenging for top two given the teams coming down. Willis is a good defender and deserves the chance to play higher...

    Where does Chaplin fit ?

    Agree with the above, think he suits playing with a strike partner which was what Pompey fans said before he joined us (they were disappointed Jackett only playing 1 up). The recent form of Jordy, Baka and Enhobakhare means he’s going to have to really fight for a start especially with big max...

    48 hours away from expulsion / New Ricoh Talks!

    Is this Les hinting he knows something? I feel a smug observer exclusive coming soon painting a Ricoh deal as a sisu victory. On the plus side though it does feel like we’ll be in Coventry next year. The silence since the sky rumour yesterday feels like the local media may know something...

    Match Thread Portsmouth vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Monday 22nd Apr

    Sky just stated there has been a thaw in the stand off between sisu and wasps. No detail mentioned but seemed a strange thing to come out with unsubstantiated.

    Sunderland fans forum - post match

    If this is true (and I don’t see why people would make it up) then it’s fucking low by our fans. All clubs have their idiots but if i was at a game and shit or a bottle hit one of my kids I’d be livid. Someone innocent will end up getting a kicking up there tonight by one of their knuckle...
